P4 Melodifest promises broadcasts from the 2006 heats themselves, plus a whole range of international and Swedish Eurovision Song Contest hits, on demand.

The site also gives details of the forthcoming heats and grand final of Melodifestivalen, including biographies in Swedish for the singers and songwriters taking part in this year's selection process. Swedish mobile phone users can enter a competition on the site to win tickets for the Melodifestivalen shows.
